"And the Chantoozies. Between them and Leo it was a great end to the weekend and our fifth festival.”

Eve, Ally and Tottie, otherwise known as the Chantoozies, took time out on Sunday afternoon for a Tuk Tuk tour of Airlie Beach.

Meanwhile others among the festival's 74 acts headed to the main tent for the grand finale, which as well as performances by the headliners included a presentation to Mr Butlin for his ongoing support of live music in Airlie Beach.

Gold Coast act The Wayward Suns were revealed as winners of the festival's national Battle of the Bands competition and will feature on the main stage line-up in 2018.

Also on Sunday afternoon was the raffle draw for winners of this year's signed 'pink guitars', with proceeds going to the Cancer Council through the Pink Ribbon Charity Fair.

In a heart-warming twist of fate Liam Andrew, whose late father Steve 'the hat' Andrew was a festival volunteer ambassador coordinator, claimed one of the winning tickets.

Liam and his brother Ollie bought their raffle tickets with money raised from auctioning one of this year's ambassador hats, worn by the volunteers in Steve Andrew's honour.

The Andrew brothers donated the guitar back to the PRCF and it was auctioned off on stage for $2800.
